This week's song started as an assignment from my song-writing teacher, Adam Gwon. I had to write lyrics to an existing melody, which was a lot harder than I thought. For this week's song I use those lyrics but altar the melody of the song while keeping some of the chordal structure to make the song my own. I'm not sure who wrote the original melody.
I also tried a new strum pattern this week which I have definitely NOT mastered yet.

INSPIRATION:
The idea from the song came from hearing the original tune that I wrote lyrics to. It just sounded like "there you are," so I wrote lyrics around that idea. My friend Michael said the tune sounded anthemic and I wanted to write a song about someone who has a partner that actually inspires and supports them. The idea sounds too wonderful to be possible, but who knows...
